    Masa in South End Boston, though known for a large and exotic tequila selection, was also a perfect brunch spot for champagne and good eats! Can't wait to go back!

    If you’re one of those “Sriracha on everything” people, try Masa. The menu at this chic South End eatery is overrun with words like “chipotle,” “jalapeno,” and “chile-dusted” – even the cocktails. Read more

    The fiesta brunch special is absolutely necessary in your life. Trust me. And their chipotle cranberry spread is such a unique flavor!

    Fantastic brunch. Delicious corn bread with three spreads - butter with honey and molasses, chipotle cranberry, and jalapeno apricot, then 2 courses for $7.95. Highly recommend

    Their cornbread is delicious, and their tapas are so great for their value, especially when they're 50% off. But holy crap the dish with the pepper... I died.

    The brunch selection was nice combination of savory and sweet... the tilapia tacos and eggs Benedict were highlights.

    The Brunch Fiesta for $9.95 is the best for college kids looking to go out for Sunday brunch.

    Entrees came out before bread...but the awesome drinks made up for it. Great dinner scene before a night out.

    How do Santa Fe-style eggs benedict served over housemade southwestern biscuits with avocado, green chili hollandaise and southwestern home fries sound to you? Read more

    This funky little bar unfortunately closed @930pm due to a huge party earlier on clearing them out of food. Had the small, tasty tapas platter - and 1 mezcal cocktail before we had to leave. Shame!
